Sasou Castle

Sasou Castle seems to fly under the radar of many castles fans but it has some great stone walls for a fairly small satellite castle. It's very easy to get to along with other great castles in the area. It's also fairly easy to reach from the station and an easy hike.

History

The history of Sasou Castle is unclear. It was built as a satellite fortification of Kannonji Castle and would have been taken by Oda Nobunaga in 1568 when he assailed Kannonji Castle.
